VERY VERY VERY LONG POST ALERT
So after testing positive for pregnancy and registering for ANC at 7weeks. I had blood tests done and when I went for my 2nd appointment, I was told my blood showed my random blood sugar was at borderline and my urine tested positive for glucose, so they took another blood and repeated the glucose test, it cane back high so they had to do a blood confirmation test since it was still pretty early to do oral glucose tolerance test. Well all tests showed my blood glucose was high, thus, I was diagnosed with Early Gestational Disbetes at barely 14-15weeks pregnancy. They had the whole long talks with me about what could go wrong and right, I broke down in tears at the doctor’s office. Anyway, I was referred to endocrinologist and obstetrician to manage both my sugar levels as well as baby development. We tried diet control with no luck so I was started on diabetes tablet, I was also given a glucose meter and a diary to monitor my blood sugar 4times a day and record, I had appointments with the diabetic midwife every forth-night that everyone in the hospital literally knew me cos I was in clinic every other week. Following my endocrinologist and obstetric consultation, they informed me that given my erratic blood sugar levels, I will have to be induced at 38-39weeks as risk of complications tend to increase from 40weeks. From 28weeks, I had monthly growth monitoring scans to check baby’s development and weight as one of the risks with GDM is macrosomic baby (big baby), my scan at 28weeks already showed baby had hit 2kg and they were concerned baby was gonna get big. Anyways, I continued my medications plus dieting, that instead of gaining weight, I was loosing weight in pregnancy. My pre pregnancy weight was 74.9kg and at 38weeks pregnancy, I weighed 74.6kg.
Anyway, besides the blood glucose drama, every other thing went smooth, I worked full time, hubby lives in a different country so it was me, my baby inside and the Holy Ghost for the whole 9 months.
During my 36weeks appointment with the endocrinologist, he booked my for induction at 39weeks which was gonna be on the 8th of November. However, at 37 weeks and 5 days, I got a call from the diabetic midwife that my blood sugar was getting even higher and for that, they needed to bring my induction date forward to the 3rd of Nov. I should ring the ward at 8am to confirm time to come in. So on Sunday, the 3rd which also happened to be my wedding anniversary, I rang and I was asked to come in at 9:30am, bear in mind hubby is in another country altogether, he was planning to come in to be around for the 8th which was previously the scheduled date for induction of labour but the sudden Change in plan meant it was just me. So I picked my bag, called a taxi and headed to the hospital... I called my friend and she was to meet me at the hospital.
On arrival at the hospital, I met the midwives, they told me the process and connected me to a monitor, after motoring baby for 30minute and confirmed she was doing ok, they did VE and inserted a pessary, I was told they don’t repeat VE till 24hours time and if by then, labour hasn’t started, they will insert another one. I was also told to walk around as much as possible as it will help to get things started, so, myself and my friend began walking round the whole hospital, about 4 hours after the insertion, I started having waist pains, it started from the back, then to the sides and finally settled at the front. Around 7pm ish, the night shift came on and I asked for pain killer, I was given paracetamol but I also was told I could have pethidine. So we went out for more walk, by this time, the waist pain had become very serious, after going up and down the stairs , I came back to my bed and my members ruptured at 9:40pm, I told the midwife and she asked if I wanted her to check me, ideally, I wasn’t to be checked till next day but that she can check on maternal request, I said, I will let you know when to check, about an hour later 10:50pm , I told her to check, she did (very painful and uncomfortable something), she said I was 3cm dilated, Cervix is paper thin and in 3 hours time, she will transfer me to labour ward. My people after this VE, the pain became so strong, I started asking for pethidine, my friend with me kept discouraging me as it could make babies a bit drowsy after birth, so, I accepted a bath and aromatherapy as alternative for pain relief..... I was in this bath and suddenly I realised I was pushing, I couldn’t stop myself from pushing so they helped me back to bed, pushed me straight to labour ward, I was asked to climb the delivery couch which I did and they could see my baby’s head, they just said I should push with contractions, the others were running around getting things ready, with the next contraction, I tried pushing and it felt like I was being cut in pieces in my Jajaina, I told them I feel like I am tearing up down below, they told me to go ahead and push as baby was there already, with subsequent contractions, I pushed 2x and baby’s head was delivered, next one, I pushed, her body came out and she was placed on my chest and the placenta was delivered lastly. She came out at exactly 23:36 screaming her lungs out. She weighed 3.165kg. I had a 2nd degree tear which the midwife sutured very meticulously. I was up in minutes to hours, walking about, had a shower, carried my baby. Was discharged home at 6pm the next day.
- All the pains disappeared completely immediately after the placenta came out that till now, I am still trying to remember what that pain felt like but it appears I have forgotten it.
- I had the best midwives from admission, to delivery and discharge
- I had my baby in less than an hour from the time I was 3cm dilated. I don’t know how the dilatation jumped from 3cm at 10:50pm to baby being delivered at 11:36pm, I just know it was God, even the midwives all told me chances of having my baby on Sunday was almost zero as a FTM
- I tried to induce labour naturally with pineapples as I heard but it ended up spiking my blood sugars up even more so I stopped
In all, I am thankful to God, I have the most perfect healthy baby girl, with the fullest hair ever, everyone keeps talking about her hair.
